Professional development for schools

Practical AI training.
Teacher to teacher.

No hype, no fear, and no parade of one hundred apps. These sessions help educators use AI thoughtfully for the work already on their plates while keeping professional judgment, relationships, and student learning at the center.

Available sessions

Start with the problem your people need to solve.

Every session can be adjusted for a faculty meeting, conference breakout, half-day training, leadership retreat, or continuing support. The best fit depends on who is in the room and what they need to be able to do afterward.

01

Signature session

The Teacher Is the CEO. AI Is Your Hire.

A practical reframe for overwhelmed teachers: stay in the CEO chair while giving AI the right supporting jobs. Participants learn what to delegate, what never to delegate, how to choose the right tool, and how to check the work before it leaves the classroom.

Format
30–45 minute keynote or 60–90 minute workshop
Best for
All educators

Participants leave with

  • A simple test for deciding when AI belongs in the work
  • A clear way to match different AI tools to different jobs
  • A teacher-first approach to prompting, revising, and reviewing
02

Hands-on foundations

AI in the Classroom: From Curiosity to Confident Use

A guided tour of realistic classroom uses for tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and NotebookLM. The focus stays on work educators already have: planning, communication, feedback, differentiation, research, and student support.

Format
60–90 minute interactive workshop
Best for
Teachers and instructional staff

Participants leave with

  • Live examples tied to everyday school responsibilities
  • Safe-use habits for privacy, accuracy, bias, and hallucinations
  • A small set of starting points participants can use immediately
03

Leadership session

Leading an AI-Ready School or District

A balanced planning session for leaders who need to move beyond both blanket bans and unstructured adoption. The conversation connects policy, staff readiness, safe experimentation, academic integrity, professional learning, and a phased rollout.

Format
60–120 minute working session
Best for
Administrators, boards, curriculum, and technology leaders

Participants leave with

  • A practical roadmap from pilot work to sustainable implementation
  • Questions to address in staff and student AI guidance
  • Strategies for building local capacity without adding another initiative
04

Specialty workshop

AI for Elective, Arts, and CTE Teachers

AI training built for classes that do not fit neatly into a core-subject template. Examples come from choir, theatre, stagecraft, visual and applied arts, performance, projects, events, and other creative classrooms.

Format
60–90 minute workshop
Best for
Arts, performance, career, and project-based educators

Participants leave with

  • Prompts designed for performance and project-based learning
  • Ways to speed up planning, rubrics, events, feedback, and materials
  • Boundaries that protect authentic student creativity and voice
05

Working lab

Bring the Work: A Practical Prompt Lab

Participants bring actual work they need to complete and build useful prompts with support. Instead of watching another tool demonstration, they leave with finished drafts, repeatable workflows, and prompts they understand well enough to improve.

Format
60 minutes to a half day
Best for
Teacher teams, departments, or full staffs

Participants leave with

  • Practice with emails, rubrics, sub plans, lessons, and adapted materials
  • A repeatable structure for giving AI context and constraints
  • Time to test, revise, compare tools, and share what works
06

Culture and integrity

Beyond the Cheating Conversation

A practical conversation about academic integrity, AI literacy, and the difference between replacing student thinking and supporting it. Participants examine assignments, expectations, disclosure, process evidence, and age-appropriate student use.

Format
60–90 minute facilitated session
Best for
Teachers, administrators, and school leadership teams

Participants leave with

  • A more useful framework than relying on AI detectors
  • Ways to make student thinking and revision visible
  • Shared language for responsible use with students and families

Grounded in school experience

Built from the work, not just the tools.

Kyle has shared Holbrook High School’s AI learning journey with the Navapache Superintendent Group and has developed practical materials for teacher training, district rollout planning, AI guidance, and staff action research.

That work includes classroom uses for planning and feedback, Google’s connected AI tools, NotebookLM, privacy and accuracy, academic integrity, staff readiness, and the conditions leaders can create for responsible experimentation.

The best PD question

“What should people be able to do when the session is over?”

Need something different?

Build a session around your school.

A strong training can combine several topics, use your district’s approved tools, or focus on a specific team. Share your audience, available time, current comfort level, and biggest pain point.
